Sanford Nelson - like father, like son. Dad taught him all about real estate investing.
Like the $19.05 million the Nelsons lost for the State of Michigan Retirement System on the Raleigh Movie Studio in Pontiac. https://www.metrotimes.com/news-hits...pontiac-studio
Junior attended the Cannes Film Festival one year and told his dad that Michigan's film incentive program was the talk of the industry's mover and shakers. So, somehow, dad got the State Pension Fund to guarantee the bond financing to the tune of $18 million. Trouble was that dad and his pals never made a debt service payment on the bonds, so the State had to pay all the interest payments and principal payment when the bonds defaulted.
Their reputation of screwing over people is well known. Just ask the state pension fund.
But not to worry, you taxpayers will kick in more to make up for what he stole.
